This isn't JW related... but it really struck me as funny...
Last night I was shopping when a boy about 10 years old comes walking by saying "Da-Da? Da-Da? Da-Da?"
I was like, WTF??? This is a ten year old boy speaking like a three year old.
After awhile a man yells from another isle: "It's DAD !!! "
LOL
I guess the kid never got out of the "Da-Da" thing and now his "Da-Da" is regretting it.
For a moment, I thought that the kid was uttering the words to a Police song:
"Da-Do-Do-Do-Da-Da-Da...is all I ever say to you"
LOL -- and I thought Elsewhere was quoting The Twilight Zone theme!
When I was in college I lived in the family housing units on campus. An attractive young single mother and her three year old daughter moved into a unit nearby. One day I came home from class and walked past where the little girl was playing on a swing and her mother was reading and watching her. The girl saw me and ran to me crying out, "Daddy!" She got about three feet away and then stopped with a look of confusion as her mom looked up.
My eyes met the mother's eyes for a moment, and then I smiled at the little girl and said, "No, honey, it's not me. I assure you, I'd remember."
First elsewhere, did you ever stop to think that a 10 year old child could be mentally challenged, autistic etc. HMMMMso next time you what the F*** remember you are the one that prejudges.<SIGH>
Second: My children started calling Thunder DaDa when they saw the movie Willow, we find it cute
He didn't appear to be mentally challenged... but he did start saying "dad" as soon as he heard his dad.
If he was 10 then he was probably more likely trying to embarrass/annoy his dad hehehhe
